They had to find a way to make Falcons sidekick even more little brother status than Falcon is. kinda challenging cuz Falcon is the still the annoying little brother type that he was for Cap. Like giving Scrappy Doo a sidekick, it they bring too much, they start to overshadow him and feel like big little brother. Can't be funnier, can't be more badass, so has to find a way to be slow while still being likeable. I lol'd when his dumbass texted falcon a picture of his face with a black eye after getting beat up like :ld:

:mjlol:

Didn't really think about this but you're right.

He doesn't have to the way people recounted stuff from IW in WandaVision it's like the movie we watched is just a documentary the characters watch in the MCU. lol
it makes me wonder how much people know though
some of the stuff would make people freak out
we know they don't know about time travel.

You mean to tell me Falcon, risked his life doing suicide missions to save the world from an alien invasion and this nikka not on payroll and can't get a loan:gucci:

I mean...there's homeless vets in real life. So it's not as if there's no real world precedent for it.

Having said that, dude could expose the bank that didn't give him a loan. On some "we saved the entire universe, and this bank just shyt on me"....which would obviously be terrible PR for the bank.

Have people like Warmachine or maybe even Cap himself speak out against the bank too.

In this social media era that's how this would unfold in real life.

But they're not looking for an easy answer here, they're trying to work social commentary into the MCU. So I doubt this will be resolved so easily.

People forget Cap had 70 years of back pay with interest in this timeline. He couldn't lend his homie Sam a few dollars? Had a nice apartment in downtown Brooklyn and a brand new Harley though.:mjpls:

Yea I get there are homeless vets, but most of them have some form of PTSD or other mental illness that is preventing them from working. Sam seems to be a likeable guy with a lot of connections but above all else, he's a super hero. Its just odd to not take care of the people keeping your country safe from villains.

I agree with the social commentary, though. It was a good scene at its core.
